The Raceway at Belle Isle

Tony Kanaan’s series-leading fifth victory of 2007 Sunday at the Detroit Indy Grand Prix – combined with a penultimate-lap crash that dropped fellow championship contenders Scott Dixon and Dario Franchitti down in the finishing order – has set up a three-way battle for the IndyCar Series championship to be decided at next week’s season finale in Chicago.

With just minutes remaining in the Firestone “Fast Six” qualifying shootout, Helio Castroneves jumped from third to first in his final flying lap, securing an IndyCar Series-record seventh pole this season Saturday at the Detroit Indy Grand Prix.
